In the hotel room, Lin Feng picked up the voice call. In order not to disturb Ah Zeng, who was sleeping in the next bed, Lin Feng quietly got out of bed and slipped into the bathroom. He listened to the girl on the other end of the phone in a relaxed tone while nodding his head, "Yes, yes, ah, ah."
Finally, the girl sitting on the toilet revealed a look of realization.
"So … so that's what happened."
After listening to the young lady's explanation, it turned out that the young lady was still in Manchester. Even though she had dealt with the complicated postoperative examinations at St. Edmund Hospital, it wasn't that convenient for her to apply for leave from school.
"He was intercepted by Dean Elizabeth of the Academic Affairs Office."
An Xin's tone was regretful.
"If it were only the old Vice-Provost Pitt, who had always been very lenient to me, it just so happened that a new leave of absence was delivered to Miss Elizabeth's desk. The Provost has always been known for her strict teaching style in the college. She is old and unmarried, and is secretly called an old nun by everyone in the college."
At the end of her sentence, the girl seemed to complain a little.
On the other end of the line, Lin Feng nodded in agreement.
"That's right!"
"In China, she's called Abbess Miejue. Our school also has such a teacher. Usually, we have to take a detour when we see her. Seriously, she's not happy with her own life, so she vents her anger on her students. Isn't she just looking for trouble?"
He was filled with righteous indignation on behalf of his childhood sweetheart.
But after a pause, he could not help but ask,
"So you can't solve the problem at school now?"
"You really can't come?"
Lin Feng felt sorry for An Xin. This year's World Championship was unprecedentedly exciting and intense. The group stages were really just child's play. She only watched the group stages, but missed the quarter-finals and even the finals. It was a pity.
The girl on the other end of the line pouted and said helplessly:
"Yeah, I'm not happy either."
"I was supposed to be there to cheer for everyone. I heard that God and KG's team played very well, didn't they? But I didn't even have the time to watch the livestream."
Then, the girl changed the topic.
"However, it's not like there's no way to solve it."
"I'll think of something on my side. There should be a chance to deal with Ms. Y 'lisabet. It'll just take a little more time. At the very least, we'll be able to make it in time for the finals in London. If everything goes well, we might even be able to make it in time for the semifinals in two days."
Someone perked up when he heard that.
"Is that so?"
"That's for the best! Tomorrow is the last day of training. The day after tomorrow will be the day after tomorrow. If you're sure you can handle it, hurry up and book the plane tickets tomorrow. "
The girl on the other end of the phone smiled.
"Got it, got it ~ I'll check the situation tomorrow. If I'm sure, I'll let you know."
On the other end of the line, Lin Feng nodded.
Then, there was a moment of silence.
Then he heard the girl's puzzled voice on the other end of the phone, "What's wrong? Is the signal bad? Why aren't you talking again?"
"I'm fine."
Lin Feng shook his head.
An Xin smiled. "I'm glad you're fine."
Lin Feng paused for a moment, then nodded earnestly. "Mhmm, that's good."
This seemingly irrelevant sentence caused the young lady on the other end of the line to pause for a moment. A long while later, the young lady's relaxed voice once again sounded, "Alright, it's getting late. You should hurry up and go to sleep. I'm also preparing to rest."
"Good night ~"
"Good night ~"
… …
The voice call ended.
On the other end of the phone, An Xin put away her phone and let out a sigh of relief.
It was as if the happiness she'd just shown was a deliberate act to prevent the idiot on the other end of the line from worrying even more.
The girl shook her head as she recalled the sincere words he'd said at the end of the call.
That idiot …
Sometimes, he's so sharp and meticulous that it makes me nervous.
"Once you lie once, you'll have to lie ten thousand times to make up for it."
Suddenly, a laid-back voice rose beside her. It sounded like a sentimental voice. An Xin bit her lips softly when she heard it.
"But …"
"I can't stop now. If I do, everything I've done will be in vain."
"Isn't that right, Senior?"
As she spoke, she looked at Number One beside her.
One shook his head. "From what I can see, it's never too late to regret something like this. It's just that you're too stubborn. No one can persuade you otherwise."
Number Five looked at Anxin and said:
"Lin Feng believes you?"
The girl pursed her lips and nodded. "Mhmm."
Number One sighed with emotion again.
"That kid … he's usually so cunning, but he's been completely controlled by you. He'll believe anything you say."
Five gave his fiancé a reproachful look, then turned to An Xin.
"But it's not a bad thing to keep it a secret at a time like this."
"You're right, Steamed Bun. We've already kept it a secret for so long, so we might as well keep it a little longer."
"Besides, maybe …"
"We won't have to keep it a secret soon, right?"
An Xin paused for a moment, and a hopeful look appeared on her face. She nodded vigorously. Number One raised his eyebrows and commented, "That's right.
"Looks like Third Bro really did something this time."
"Recommended place …"
"He's quite capable."
The three looked out the window as they chatted.
In the distance was Berlin under the night sky. The buildings in the city were dimly lit.
They were in the suburbs of Berlin, the capital of Germany.
Two days ago, when No.2, No.3, and No.4 met up with the LPL division's KG and Team God, someone curiously asked about the whereabouts of "Senior No.1 and Sister Xiao Wu". At that time, the reply he received from the three seniors was simply, "They still have something to do and will come over later."
Who would have thought …
Two days ago, the three of them had arrived in Berlin on the same flight as No.2, No.3, and No.4.
The three of them had been in the capital of Germany for two days.
On the first day, the young lady was accompanied by No.1 and No.5 to the new hospital that No.3 had specially recommended.
After a series of precise and comprehensive tests.
What he got was an incomparably pleasant and exciting answer.
Although they couldn't guarantee or promise anything, it was enough to welcome a brand new hope.
"The hospital said that the day before yesterday was just a preliminary test. They have to confirm it again."
Number One looked at An Xin and raised an eyebrow.
"Alright, get some rest tonight."
"Tomorrow, your sister Xiao Wu and I will accompany you to Heidelberg Hospital again."
